This rebuilt Terrain looked bad on the surface but what is underneath is worse 

I don’t mind people using body filler but use it correctly. If you think this was anything near correct, let me know so I can tell people to avoid whatever shop you work at that thinks this is an acceptable repair! 😳

@@vehcor i have seen it over and over again body men will run down someone else but do the same thing in some situations! It is real easy to pick on some one else! But most are not prefect! like it or not it is a fact!

@@vehcor I think you found the guy who did that old job lol...

You must be insane comparing vehcor with the person who sculpted the previous repair.... 😵🤯 did you actually not see the amount of bondo used?

No they most certainly are NOT all the same. A statement like you have made puts the speaker in the camp of plastering tack welders and papier mache rust repairers who believe it is the right & proper thing!

Thanks!

Isn’t this more of a hobby?

@@bradschuh4618 This one is "In the name of Content"...

Been waiting all week for the follow up. Looks like the person who " reshaped " the rear 1/4 panel was more of a plasterer than a vehicle repair man ?

Nigel Hopkinson wow, so original lol he said that joke in the video😂

Did you see in the video when he first started lifting the seat, the vehicle floated up with the weight being removed!

Probably get better gas mileage if they took some weight out of the seats.

It’s.not lead, it’s bismuth.

That line gave me the laugh I have needed for a while.

Thanks for the confidence in my work!

Yes, love his vids and styles, and the voice is relaxing, other yt piss me off

I was thinking the same thing.

I agree completely. Knows more about how to put these cars together than even the factory.

You need to watch the Arthur Tussik channel

A lot. This was four hours of video. I think it took me around 10 hours to edit then do the voice over and re-watch it for the third time all the way through. I spend more time editing than I do rebuilding. lol

@@vehcor It shows. This was engrossing to watch. Why would I ever watch this lol, but it was good.

@@vehcor Effort into editing shows. Thank you. Think about my old employer when I see Bondo used like that. No, it wasn't a good experience. Yes, the went out of business.

@@vehcor It shows, great work editing! I hate doing the voiceovers more than splicing the videos.

@@vehcor But that's how come 134 THOUSAND of us LOVE you (and counting)! Your fault for being so good and THANKS for it all. Sonny (CT)

Me too and it seems to be getting more common.

You ruined all the work the last guy did!

@@vehcor I am semi retired now, but still keep my hand in as I do the specialist aluminum work. The company I work for are Tesla, VW Audi and BMW approved.. Don't know what its like in the States but here in the UK there's a lack of skilled people coming through so owners end up having the cars repaired through Fred in The shed outfits, and this is where the problem is. You wouldn't believe the amount of training I had to do to work on Tesla's. Love what you do...ohh, and by the way I use a Caroliner Jig the same as you.

@@NHHalKnowsHow THANKFULLY!

Im restoring a 65 pontiac at the moment and am not exaggerating one bit when i say the car returned from the blasters with a right rear quarter that looked like it had been removed , layed on a gravel drive and run over several times with a forklift. Filler was well over quarter inch thick in places.

Pictures and videos don't do this work justice! It needs to be in a museum. lol

And then there are these uncultured art negs tearing all that quality work apart to put things back to factory spec. Lol.

... and John Holmes said: :Open wide baby !"

Thanks for the support. I do love trolling the haters though. lol

@@vehcor ahem, Mustang?

Fully agreed. The content is excellent... 360°.

Thanks!

I fear that is was probably a shop. The backyard hackers are getting more common these days though. Thanks for watching!

@@vehcor i have seen used car dealers buy from an auction and do what's necessary just to get car ready even if its wrong on all levels

But putting a car back in the road without air bags and no fully functional seat belt it’s just unacceptable.

@@paulog8813 It was been accptable for them, i guess.

I suspect it was a insurance paid shop. They were given a budget to fix it and these people were the cheapest.

All just part of the job. Thanks for watching.

It’s a good thing I’m in a big concrete box or the neighbors would be pissed! 😂 Thanks for the support!

Good luck with your build.

Thanks!

No anthem kneeling here, son!

I almost ended up on my butt! 😂

These Terrains are very popular around here. I have rebuild a few dozen of them. It is jobs like this that make me understand your write offs over there. Take care from the USA!

The scrap yard might refuse the load because it is contaminated with too much body filler. lol

Thanks for the support!

that is an underrated comment my dude

😂👍🏻

Thanks for the support!

I think people are taking that as a challenge these days! “I can do worse than that, hold my beer!” 😂

@@vehcor hold my bondo 😂

I'd say "someone's been here before" is worse...

Those fireballs are always fun to watch from another bay... on someone else's car. lol

@@vehcor You got that right 🤣

lol Only $25/week from Snap-On

@@vehcor For the rest of your life...and your children's life ...and their children's life!!

His hours have been cut.

Mr. Spotty is at Thigh Level, @ 03:29!

@@vehcor Was spotty getting that new $15/hr

@@vehcor Got the Covid then?

@@carguy4658 Good catch!!

Don’t worry, you already scored 2 more weeks from other comments in this video already. 😂

@@vehcor 🤬🤬 The Mustang..... I’m cursing you in Portuguese so you can’t understand. 🤣

"failed repair rebuild" - whatever the fuck you think that means. A repair depends on what you have and what you can spend on it. Saving my car from the crusher long enough for it to get me to work and the grocery store long enough to continue making the payments and rent for a while is an unqualified successful repair. You fanboys on this site drool over this term "rebuild" like it came out of the mouth of your interior designer "husband" thing. I have never heard of a repair shop doing an auto-body "rebuild". You folks surely must be confused and mean auto-body RESTORATION.

Yes we will!

Most likely more structural bondo.... :-)

Probably a can of bondo. Just in case something came apart. 🤣

Free bondo coupons 😂

Oh, you know the place too. lol The owner is kind of a sarcastic jerk!

@@vehcor I've heard that but he does great work. 😂😂

To me seeing a quality finished product is a reward by itself. I can't imagine what these people think. Do they brag about this kind of work? lol Thanks for the support!

They need to watch this channel and take notes.

Mission accomplished! There is the safe way and then there is the mostly safe way so we can get work done! 😂

Insurance approved body shop usually means a cheap repair. Someone threw diluted paint on my freshly painted car. My friend who has a shop was able to buff it off the body but said the vinyl roof would need repainting and gave the $800 estimate to the appraiser. He rejected it even though it was less than the actual price. The appraiser said to take it to "their shop" and the estimate was $400, or about 1/3 what it would cost at my friend's shop. I went there, asked him if he could do it all for $400 and after he stopped laughing he asked me if I was on drugs as it would be at minimum $1600. Showed him the appraisal from the adjuster and he thought the guy was out of his mind.

I have a car from one of those shops the frame is bent

I think bondo sponsored the last rebuilder! 😂

None of that pesky metal to contaminate your bondomobile! 😂

I just finished filling in a big missing piece of the plastic outside mirror housing on my wife's car using bondo. It's kind of fun forming and shaping that stuff. It's addictive after a while.

Thanks!

Actually if you change the oil, they are pretty good. I blame GM for bending to the lazy people and allowing ridiculous oil change intervals.

@@vehcor Well that applies to a whole range of GM vehicles like the 3.6 and AFM V8s. But on the 2.4 if the water pump goes bad that’s a lot of fun also.

@@vehcor My girlfriend drives a 2012 Malibu with the 2.4 LE5. She got it new and It's been a pretty bad experience. (The edits are because I'm having to remember everything I've replaced or fixed). I change the oil when the computer says 30% because that's usually around 4,000 miles and 6 months. The computer let the first oil change go 6,000 miles in about 10 months. Despite that, one of the nylon timing guides snapped in half where the fastener passes through at 60,000 miles. Luckily I was driving and heard the clatter in time to save the engine. It was squeaky clean in there when I opened it up to clean out the broken up nylon, replace the chain, guides, and tensioner. Shortly thereafter, the exhaust manifold cracked in half. Then the flange broke off the exhaust above the catalyst at the weld. Both rear brake calipers have developed slow leaks and left the car stranded with no brake fluid and they destroyed the clear-coated alloy wheel in the process. The variable cam solenoids have both died, once each. The parking brake pedal ratchet lock mechanism has worn out twice, making it so you can't set the parking brake. One front wheel bearing has failed. All the speakers have died at least once, and replacing the power mirror switch is a yearly thing. Also, all the hard plastic interior panels like the a pillar, steering wheel center cover, sail panels, etc. have leached their plasticizers and become irreversibly sticky and gross, so they're perpetually caked in dust, hair, pollen, polyester fibers, etc. and can't really be cleaned. I've never had a car kick me in the balls constantly like this one has. I can't wait to see it go. I definitely won't own another GM product if I can help it.

Yep! Years ago I did that after my car was recovered after being stolen. The shop that “fixed” it couldn’t even manage to use a matching interior door panel - and this wasn’t some exotic antique, it was a 4 year old Nissan!

This is the kind of work you get from a shop that says they will cover your deductible.

It certainly helps keep costs down.

An old friend used to run a salvage yard and body shop. Saved them a ton of money since so many parts were sourced in-house. Another guy I knew rebuilt Impalas like Scott rebuilds Grand Ams. He had 10+ in a warehouse so most parts were almost free.

Many thanks!

Ugh, that’s the worst one! 😂

Glad you like them!

Thanks!

Glad you enjoyed it

I appreciate that!

Thanks for watching!
